Review of The Philadelphia Story (1940) by John W — 01 Apr 2015
Starring Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn and James Stewart. What is more fun than watching the privileged cast enjoy its privileges? This satiric look at marriage in the upper crust of American society has lost none of its edge over the last seventy-five years.
Its dialogue remains witty and biting, its great performances a sheer delight from start to finish. James Stewart won the Oscar for his performance as a tabloid reporter assigned to cover Hepburn's wedding.
Directed by George Cukor.
